The 10 Top Makeup Trends For 2017

Another year in the books and yet another year of new makeup trends to try that are quickly taking over the makeup scene. Every year, the runway dons new fashion and makeup trends that we, regular people, would never even think of. Have you heard of glossy eyelids yet? Or have you tried to recreate the bushy brow brought to us by our runway favorites? Chances are, most of these trends are new to you, but why not go ahead and try to recreate them yourself? Here are some great makeup ideas to transform your daily look to achieve that runway-inspired look. Below are the 10 top makeup trends to follow for 2017!

1. Be bold with those brows.

Brow liners and brow powder help set off the natural look and will bring all the attention to your face! Not to mention, the straight or bold looks are completely intriguing such as Alicia Keys’ “No Makeup Movement” or Kendall Jenner’s straight brow arches that will let the rest of your skin breathe. This look is simple and you only need one makeup tool!

3. Light up those eyes with shades of maroon and burgundy.

Maroon and burgundy are rather unique shades for eyes. We’re so used to neutral shades and smokey eyes, but adding some pink to those lids can really make any eye color pop! You can keep your face makeup minimal for a day time look, or dress up those pink lids with amazing false lashes and liner for a nighttime look!

4. Mermaid Eyes.

Chances are, you’ve seen mermaid quotes among t-shirts, hats, accessories and more lately. If you’re a mermaid at heart, don’t be afraid to transfer that to your face and go for a look with shades of aqua, teal and silver to create one of the top makeup trends this year!

5. Load on the gloss for the perfect pout.

Whether you like your gloss scented or full of shine when the light captures your lips, the pouty high-shine lip look is back! We all used to love the roll-on glosses and thick gooey sparkle lip glosses as kids. Now we can enjoy that look once again with the ultimate glossy pucker!

6. Stand out from the crowd with shades of blue.

Blue eyeliner is such a vivid color to easily get you prepared for spring and summer. Not only is it a bit rebellious for true feminists or the exceptionally girly BFF, but it’s a really presentable color that you can pair or stand alone with a lot of other colors.

7. Bold makeup is not limited to just the monochromatic look.

Look absolutely fabulous and create a fierce statement by adding a variety of color splashes to your face. You don’t even have to be complex in adding the splashes of color. You ought to just pick what colors or stick to one shade, add a lot of it and make your face blossom with color!

8. Glossy Eye Lids.

So this one may seem odd at first, but glossy lids are taking over the runway and soon to be making their way onto your own face as well. There are simple ways to take your regular eyeshadow and give it that shiny glossy vibe to really make your eyes pop with a “wet-look.”

9. Go for minimal face makeup with a pop of bright red on the lips.

Bold red lips are in. But this time, keep your lips bright and the rest of your face makeup minimal to really draw all the attention to that smile.

10. Get the glowing skin from within look.

Glowing skin not only looks healthy but suggests that these looks can be paired with natural makeup shades. The more you keep the theme natural, perhaps the more the accents of shine will stand out and give you that glowing complexion!
